2. About Our Services

Auto Scan Direct provides independent electronic vehicle verification services using professional diagnostic and reporting systems.

Our services do not constitute:

• A mechanical inspection
• A roadworthiness assessment
• A safety certification

Electronic verification reflects vehicle system status at the time of inspection only.

Auto Scan Direct does not:

• Conduct road tests
• Move or drive vehicles
• Carry out repairs
• Clear or reset fault codes
• Provide mechanical advice
• Confirm structural integrity

Retailers, auction houses, vehicle owners and buyers remain responsible for assessing the overall mechanical condition of a vehicle.

Auto Scan Direct accepts no liability for mechanical defects, latent faults, intermittent issues, wear and tear, or post-inspection failures.


4. Accuracy of Reports

Inspection reports are generated using professional diagnostic equipment and reporting systems.

Reports reflect data available at the time of inspection.

Electronic data can change after inspection. Auto Scan Direct is not responsible for:

• Subsequent system changes
• Fault codes appearing after inspection
• Fault codes cleared by third parties
• Repairs carried out after inspection
• Misuse or misinterpretation of reports
